Perovskite-related materials, (La0.75Sr0.25)(1-x)Cr0.5Mn0.5O3-delta ( 0 less than or equal to x less than or equal to 0.1) (LSCM), have been synthesised and examined as potential anode materials for solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs). La0.75Sr0.25Cr0.5Mn0.5O3 exhibits a rhombohedral structure. It appears to be chemically compatible with yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) to at least 1300 degreesC. At 900 degreesC, its electrical conductivity is about 38 S/cm in air and 1.5 S/cm in 5% H-2 (pO(2) approximate to 10(-21) atm). Good performance was achieved using LSCM as anode with a polarization resistance 0.9 and 0.47 Omega cm(2) in wet 5% H-2/Ar and wet H-2, respectively. The anode polarization was further reduced to 0.6 and 0.25 Omega cm(2) in wet 5% H-2/Ar and wet H-2 when a thin layer of Ce0.8Gd0.2O2-delta (CGO) layer was coated between YSZ and LSCM anode. Stable performance was sustained for at least for 4 h operating in wet methane. By improving the electrode microstructure, the electrode polarization resistance approaches 0.2 Omega cm(2) at 900 degreesC in 97% H-2/3% H2O for LSCM containing a small amount of YSZ to improve adherence but without CGO. Very good performance is achieved for methane without using excess steam. Using ambient humidification (i.e., 3% H2O), the same performance is achieved with methane at 950 degreesC as for hydrogen at 850 degreesC. The anode is stable in both fuel and air conditions and shows stable electrode performance in methane. Thus, both redox stability and operation in low-steam hydrocarbons have been demonstrated, overcoming two of the major limitations of the current generation of nickel zirconia cermet SOFC anodes. LSCM and other complex perovskites are promising anode materials for SOFCs. (C) 2004 The Electrochemical Society.
